    Cursor

    How can I reset to use the old (big fat ugly) default cursor used with Knoppix 3.1? 3.2 & 3.3 changed to a smaller arrowhead style cursor & there doesn't seem to be any way to choose the old style instead. Problem is the new one is very hard to see on my laptop. Also it blanks out when moved which makes it even worse.
    Thanks.

    You could try as root update-alternatives --config x-cursor-theme and choose the default core X cursor instead of one of the new themes.
